In this week’s installment of Worst Looks of the Week (where we look back at the atrocities of the red carpets), the worst-dressed celebrities found sartorial inspiration from animals and inanimate objects, like zebras, lampshades, everyday spreadable fats and one ugly brown couch. In the case of an old three-seater sofa, at least you can give it away to a home in need. Unfortunately (fortunately?), nobody would take this train wreck of a dress off Meryl Streep’s hands. You’ll see what we mean:

Meryl Streep wore an ugly brown couch on the red carpet

Ana Faris

Why, oh why, in a world where everyone is all about the butt, would anyone actually add a frill of voluminous fabric to the waist? Such a thing obstructs any semblance of womanly curves, and then she did the exact same thing to her ankles? Is this the new hourglass? WTF.

Anne Hathaway

This skirt, or wide leg pant (who knows?), is way too elegant for such a bunchy sweatpant-esque waistband. It doesn’t make sense. Chop this outfit above the knees though, and it could make a good outfit for tennis.

Brooke Candy

This rapper is another fashion victim of the fur trend. It’s just so big, and so pink, and so wild. It looks like a muppet might be eating her, and I’m concerned.Photo credit: Getty Images

Cara Delevingne

Cara Delevingne has a tendency to make bad sartorial choices when she’s not on set and working. Like this one. We’ve got a non-sexy cutout on Cara’s hip, and another non-sexy cutout where a bra would be. Who thought this would be a good idea?

Ellen Degeneres

This suit reminds me of a blob of butter, and it gives Ellen’s complexion a bit of a tomato-red hue. Why do this to yourself? Even an all-white suit that was a tad more crisp would look much better.

“They say” that zebras evolved their striped pattern to confuse predators. When standing in a herd, they would look less like individual servings of dinner and more like a bunch of complicated, haphazard, willy-nilly stripes. Which is also what this dress looks like to me. I wonder if lions get headaches.

Julianne Moore

This dress looks more like a lampshade than a dress, and frankly, I’d like it better dressing up a table-top than dressing up Julianne Moore.

Kaley Cuoco-Sweeting

Where are you, Kaley? There’s way too much fabric happening here. With a flouncy skirt like this one, think about toning down the top so we don’t lose you entirely.

Kat Dennings

This one borders on elegant, but veers a steep turn into goth territory with the lace shoulders and neckline. They’re a whole lot more creepy than pretty, and I’d expect to see something like this on Morticia, Elvira or one of the Munsters.Photo credit: Getty Images

Kristen Bell

Having just had a baby, we’re totally down with this comfy-looking dress, and love the bright pink shade, too. But that strange explosion of tulle in the front is a little ridiculous. You’ve already had the baby, lady… no need to keep up the maternity clothes.

Lesley Nicol

Lesley just has too much going on here with her printed scarf, necklace, and short-sleeved jacket atop the rest of her outfit. Scale back, and wear a single statement necklace instead. It’s more modern, and less frou-frou.

Maggie Grace

This dress is so close to being awesome. I love the concept of the drapey fabric, but the sheer skirt and peek of underwear looks weird, as does the length of the skirt, showing just the tops of Maggie’s feet. A solid skirt or pant would have looked better.

Meryl Streep

Meryl never half-asses anything, especially not her clothes. Sometimes, though, going big gets the best of her. Like this time—she looks like she’s wearing a big brown couch.

Rosamund Pike

If this dress didn’t have a collar, I’d wonder if it was actually a dress at all, or if Rosamund had simply wrapped a square scarf around herself and called it a day.

Rose McGowan

For a woman who always looks great in a gown, this one is unimpressive. It’s red, but my goodness is it boring. It could totally pass for one of those wear-7-way dresses from the shopping channel, that we all know are basically just big sheets of fabric you can wrap around yourself and call “fashion.”
